A body is found in the crash site but it turned out to be Nick's officemate whose name was not listed in the passenger manifesto.

Because of his memory loss, Nick introduces himself as Darwin. Mallari takes Darwin to his home where he introduces his daughter, Jessa. As time passes by, the two develop feelings for each other and have a child together. Darwin becomes involved in another accident that triggers the return of his past memories.
